Homecoming. Alex Shapiro. Grade 4.

Original

Homecoming composed by Alex Shapiro. 1962-. For Concert Band. Score. Activist Music. Grade 4. Softcover. 40 pages. Published by Hal Leonard. HL.4003787. Homecoming is a distinctly American piece of music which ventures emotionally from doubt, to hope, and finally to celebration. The most simple wind instrument of all, the human voice, echoes meaningful homecomings, wherever home may be and from whatever circumstance one returns. Written for the soldiers of the U.S. Army TRADOC Band, Homecoming seamlessly flows between traditional styles that originated in the U.S., from post-minimalist concert music to jazz. As the music grows into a waltz rhythm, welcoming smiles dance with it to the end as loved ones are reunited.
